Are you watching closely?


"Every great magic trick consists of three acts. The first act is called "The Pledge"; The magician shows you something ordinary, but of course... it probably isn't. The second act is called "The Turn"; The magician makes his ordinary some thing do something extraordinary. Now if you're looking for the secret... you won't find it, that's why there's a third act called, "The Prestige"; this is the part with the twists and turns, where lives hang in the balance, and you see something shocking you've never seen before." Cutter, The Prestige.

Went to watch the show with meiyan. nice show, better than the departed i feel. apparently, the orignal version, infernal affairs, is much better. back to the prestige, it's pretty dark and gloomy show with plenty of twists and turns. but there're the subtle hints preparing you for the twists. in all, an interesting show, different from many of the shows i've watched. =)

saw alicia and minling after the show, moy saw a pair of slippers she liked while i was talking to them. hahaha.. to tink she was telling me of the nice apparels that i'll look good in when i'm broke.. well.. what goes around comes around! anw, we part ways with moy going to vivocity (heard it's HUGE) to her sec sch frens gathering while i went home to get car.

went to have dinner with rain in jp b4 going back hall. guess what! back in hall 7 carpark, there's this couple making out in their car (can't rem the make since it's obviously not the centre of attention, all i know is that it's red!) they're so into their thing that they didn't even bother to stop when we drive past! and rain was so intrigued with the scene that she refused to get out of the car even after i parked. when we told jib abt it, he happily ran to the carpark to get a sneak peep.. talk about my view of him as a pious malay.. haha..

next show to watch: HAPPY FEET! back to my report writing liaoz!

Would you?

Would you have a lifetime of bad luck just to be lucky once?

Would you want to have answers rather than questions?

Would you give knowing that you may never get back?

I would.

Injury-prone me.

Been a hectic and tiring few weeks. Here's some updates.
Industrial Attachment's as busy as ever. i've been drafting this drawing for the past week and i'm using almost every function in the drawing software! to make matters worse, i don't seem like finishing anytime soon! i've also been liaising with outside vendors frequently. So frequent that they thought that i am an engineer in the company. well, it became obvious when one vendor specifically wanted to talk to me instead of my engineer who had tasked me the assignment!

I've decided to run for Producer in my hall production next year. the HAS system is going to be a real headache but i think we will be able to pull through. well, i've a good co-producer and director in my team, so it's going to be a fun and challenging year ahead! First stop: Main Comm Recruitment!

Recently, i just strained my thigh muscle and i thought it's a minor strain and decided to go training today to run it off. big mistake. now, the pain's back and i'm walking with a limp. well, at least there's some light beyond the gloom. guess what. i asked this person who's nice and sweet to get me some ice (for my thigh) on the way back. Imagine my amusement when she presented a packet of plain rice to me. well, it's just to show that when you are down and out, there'll be someone popping by, cheering you up. in this case, it might be a lil flawed but the theory still works. hahaha... no offense to the person though.. look.. no name stated! in any way, it was still a kind gesture. =)

Yep. that's all for updates. Time to hit the sack! night.

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages."
